Chapter 807 Keep Her Company

Arissa averted her gaze and focused on having her meal. A short while later, she could not help looking at him again. Benjamin glanced at her, stunning her. Why does he always catch me staring at him?

“Aren’t you busy at the office?” she asked. “I am busy. I’m returning to the office after lunch,” he replied. Arissa shot a glance at him. Did he deliberately come home to keep me company for lunch?

“Oh,” she responded in a diminished voice. He looked at her. “You don’t want me to go?”

“That’s not what I’m thinking!” Benjamin arched his brow and said teasingly, “Then why did you give such a halfhearted response?”

The corner of Arissa’s mouth twitched. I was merely answering him. I did not mean anything by that. His eyes lingered on her for a few more seconds, and he fell silent afterward.

After finishing their meal, Benjamin monitored Arissa as she took her medicine. She bore her eyes into him. “Hurry up and go to work. I can’t drink this while I’m still full. I’ll wait for the medicine to cool down a little before I drink it.”

He regarded her with a significant look, then shifted his gaze to the potted plant beside them. “If you were drinking the medicine properly, the plants in the house would not have withered.”

She glanced at the potted plant and cleared her throat. “What do I have to do with your withering plants?”
